I got stuck in an offline update!
First time ever with Fedora, but ok, no problem.
I run sudo dnf upgrade and I got a problem:

That is hard to read, and would be much easier if you were to post the output of dnf repolist.
I see non-standard repos as

docker-ce-stable
hashicorp
insync
slack
tailscale-stable
First I would try the following dnf upgrade --best --allowerasing --refresh and see what the differences may be.
If that works then done. If not then post again the output of dnf list installed libdrm p11-kit so we may see which repo those packages may have been installed from.
For me both those packages appear from the F38 updates repo. Every one of the conflicts you show are with the i686 version conflicting with the x86_64 version so the options I gave above will probably fix it.
The issue here is that you have the i686 and x84_64 packages installed. I don’t know what software these packages belong to, but if it was my system, I would remove the .i686 packages (manually), then upgrade.
I have the same problem but only with p11-kit
❯ sudo dnf list installed p11-kit

So it didn’t finish? What does this say? sudo dnf repoquery --duplicates
Co-installation of multilib (i686) packages only works when the versions match so that the common files are identical.
The only path forward I know of is to temporarily remove all affected i686 packages. Then some combination of sudo dnf upgrade and sudo dnf remove --duplicates should get you back to a coherent state.
I tried dnf upgrade --best --allowerasing --refresh, I got the same error again:
....

Yes, the offiline update didn’t finish, it got literraly stuck in the middle of an update.
If I usually press esc I can see the terminal with the upgrade, instead this time something was probably broken and it didn’t respond to any key press.
That shouldn’t be possible. fedora-release-identity-workstation installs /etc/dnf/protected.d/fedora-workstation.conf, which makes gnome-shell non-removable. Does that file exist?
Moreover, gnome-shell should be requested by the installed @gnome-desktop group, so it shouldn’t be autoremoved. What does dnf group list --installed say?
As a minimal workaround, you can run sudo dnf mark install gnome-shell to mark gnome-shell as user-installed.
Ups, I probably know a reason of this problem, I installed Fedora KDE, but later removed KDE and installed GNOME.
I have these installed:
$ sudo dnf group list --installed

Now I’ve done dnf mark install gnome-shell, and then removed p11-kit and libdrm, but sadly with them it removed steam and wine.
Not a big deal, I’m going to reinstall them again…
I’m going to reboot now
I sang victory too early!
I tried to install wine and I got this error:

Did you run sudo dnf remove --duplicates and sudo dnf upgrade ?
You need to end up with no more than one copy of each package installed per architecture, and the versions need to match.
It appears that you still have libdrm-2.4.114-2.fc38.x86_64 installed. You probably also have libdrm-2.4.117-1.fc38.x86_64 installed. dnf remove --duplicates should help there.
The same goes for p11-kit.
You may encounter this problem for more i686 packages as well.
Nice, this did the final fix! dnf remove --duplicates cleaned the last things, nothing else needed to be upgraded but finally I got to install again wine and steam.
Thanks again!
